Using a recordable drive
You can use your CD-RW or combination DVD/CD-RW drive to create CDs.
Creating data CDs
Use Roxio Easy CD Creator to create data CDs. Data CDs are ideal for backing
up important files such as tax records, letters, MP3 files, or photos.
Important You must have a CD-RW or combination DVD/CD-RW
drive in your notebook to create a CD. To determine the
type of drive in your notebook, examine the drive tray’s
plastic cover and compare the logo to those listed in
“Identifying drive types” on page 79. To be able to create
a CD, the imprint must say
Recordable or Rewritable .
Important We recommend that you do not use your notebook for
other tasks while creating CDs.
Important If you record copyrighted material on a CD, you need
permission from the copyright owner. Otherwise, you may
be violating copyright law and be subject to payment of
damages and other remedies. If you are uncertain about
your rights, contact your legal advisor.
